A lively discussion on National Writing Day, a national festival that was first introduced by the literacy charity First Story in 2017, is held with Charlotte, a Year Two teacher in London.

The big day is Wednesday, June 25, 2025, and this year's theme is #ShareYourVoice, encouraging everyone to write for enjoyment, confidence, and well-being.

Anticipate a wealth of useful advice, ranging from utilising the National Literacy Trust's and the BBC's free prompts and exercises to locating nearby workshops or online challenges where you can submit your work using hashtags like #NationalWritingDay and #WritingMatters.

Charlotte's passion will have you reaching for pen and paper whether you're polishing a partially completed novel, coming up with a brand-new poetry, or looking for ideas for an English lesson.

She discusses the benefits of writing for self-expression, mental health, and lifetime learning and offers simple strategies for including friends and family. Put the date in your calendar, hit play on the show, and prepare to write.
